Hi, Tuesday was my surgery. Everything went well. 4 day in to recovery and feeling really good. Only issue are the 2 drainage ports. They make me really uncomfortable. Can't wait till they are removed.4

So glad to hear this and that you are joining us! Thoughts for a quick recovery; in the meantime take gentle care of YOU! 2 -
Happy Sunday! Welcome to the first week for MARCH, Gutbusters! For those of you who are new to the group, here are some weigh-in FAQs:
• When do I post my weigh-in?
Post on your "scheduled weigh-in day". So, if you posted a weight in the New Member Registration thread on a Tuesday, then your scheduled weigh-in day will be each Tuesday of the month. Let me know if you have a question.
• Why is Week 1 beginning on Sunday? Haven't we been already posted our starting weights?
Think of it as a first birthday. You're born, then you must live a whole year before you can celebrate being 1. In this challenge, you post a starting weight, then you have a whole week to work on weight loss before you post your Week 1 weigh-in.
• How do I post my weigh-in?
Your posts should look like this:
Username:
Week: Week 1
PW: Previous Weight in pounds
CW: Current Weight in pounds
• What's my previous weight?
If you're new, your Week 1 previous weight is whatever weight you posted in the New Member Registration thread or check out the current spreadsheet to see what your posted info says. If you're returning, your Week 1 previous weight is whatever your weight was in the last week of the previous month.
• Team Dynamics!
A successful month will also include checking in each day with our team. Strive to become acquainted with everyone on the team and encourage each other in the successes and failures we will all experience. Our members are invited to post daily following the guidelines of another challenge called UAC (Ultimate Accountability Challenge). Very simple, but effective, in keeping us focused on our health goals. Please feel free to join that monthly challenge as well. @RangerRickL does a fantastic job there of keeping us motivated daily. I don’t think I’d be as far along on my journey if it wasn’t for TBL and UAC. If you’d like to participate in those guidelines, post this daily with the results.
Did I exercise for at least 20 minutes?
Did I stay within my calorie budget for the day?
Did I keep track of everything I ate and drank?
Along with our daily check-ins we will also have mini challenges weekly. I do not want to be the person coming up with these ideas so if you think of something that may be a good challenge during the week you can post the ideas on the monthly thread or send them to me privately.
• I'm still confused. Who can help me?
Just ask a question here and tag me (@keepingtrack1234). I want you to succeed as much as I want success for ourselves. If you miss your weigh-in, we will message you to remind you. Because I care. If you need to drop out for the month, we’ll hate to see you go but just let us know. Feel free to private message us if you need to.
